LOL, that's the "downside" of a presidential transition that's running smoothly--there's not much else to talk about.

GWB was handy that way, he was always doing something dumb so we could have some fresh conversation.

I hate to break it to ya'all but Obama ain't God or Jesus. He's just a man who isn't perfect as we all aren't perfect. Let's not go overboard with the Obama worship as you guys are looking mighty silly.

No where near as silly as those still defending the bush administration. There's eight years of actual PROOF of it's failures... and I don't see anyone here or in real life worshipping Obama.

"Jesus vs Obama"

I thought they were one in the same.

List one Bush failure and back up that it was his alone.

Of course Bush's failed administration was not entirely his fault. The bottom line is that he was the man in charge, the leader, dare I say, the "decider." He may have had flawed information. He may have been mislead by advisors, but it was his job to make the decisions. He selected his own cabinet and put in cronies and yes men.

Our history books were wrong for years, does that mean we should have still known the truth?

Intelligent people who did not accept things at face value are the ones who found the errors. That is what I want for a president--someone who listens to both sides or several sides in some cases and makes an intelligent, informed decision--not a decision based on listening to people who think like him and agree with him. I believe Obama will do that. We shall see....

You are correct, "We shall see...." and I am beginning to think that Obama is not as liberal as I first thought he was, but still to liberal for me tho.
